Shirts are drenched through within seconds, and your only hope of looking vaguely respectable at work is if the [...]]]></description>

After all, you can&#8217;t be too careful when you&#8217;re married to a woman who can [...]]]></description>

Show off your collection of New Order rarities, and she&#8217;ll open a cupboard and reveal recordings that even Peter Hook didn&#8217;t know existed. And woe betide he who claims to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One thing that I think should always be cherished about the UK is the number of regional accents that co-exist within such a remarkably small place. Given that we&#8217;re talking about a country which could practically fit within New York State, it&#8217;s pretty astonishing that you can get as diverse range of styles of speech [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For a relatively relaxed person like myself, everything in New York is just slightly too fast-paced. Easing yourself into a day is a practical impossibility. Everywhere you look there are people acting as if they&#8217;re starring in a bus-less version of the movie Speed, and that if they slow down below 50 mph, they&#8217;ll spontaneously [...]]]></description>
